We had our wedding at the Presidio Golf and Country Club in San Francisco. Alan came highly recommended by Molly Star the facility coordinator. I trusted Molly when she recommended Alan and it turned out to be a great plan. Thank you.

We loved working with Alan. He was recommended to us through a friend and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding partner. We met with Alan before our wedding to get to know each other and talk about our vision for the wedding. He's very friendly and down to earth which was exactly what we were looking for. I though I knew exactly what I wanted (had even already picked all the songs) but Alan provide constructive feedback and new ideas and the music for the wedding was even better than we expected. Alan provided music for the ceremony and reception and even came to our rehearsal upon his suggestion. He kept us on time during the reception and people were dancing all night long. Every single song he played I'd say, "I love this song!" We very highly recommend working with Alan. Such a great guy.

Alan helped us make our event every bit as amazing as we dreamed it would be. He played the music that kept the mood of our party upbeat and wonderful for our guests, but he also made our ceremony beautiful and meaningful. Not only was Alan a great DJ, but he helped us plan the schedule for our evening...something that we greatly needed.I would highly recommend Alan to anybody looking for a DJ in the Area!

We had a great experience with Alan Waltz Entertainment. Alan is so easy to work with, and he starts planning for the wedding well in advance to make sure everything is ready for the big day. He did such a great job at the wedding. The plan he set up was perfect, where he made sure the flow of the wedding was very smooth and kept everyone constantly entertained. He was able to keep the party going full swing up until the last song. We highly recommend Alan for your wedding!

Alan provided the ceremony and reception music for our wedding and he was fantastic! We had several meetings with Alan in preparation for our wedding day to discuss the events of our day. He is very easy to work with and available anytime for questions; music related or not. Alan has been in the business a long time and it shows! Whatever your event or occation you can be sure Alan will take care of you and your guests.

I can't say enough good things about Alan Waltz. Not only did he give us some great suggestions for the timing of our reception, he was able to create our vision with the music that he played during our event. Professional at all times, Alan really kept the dance floor moving all night long. After meeting several DJ's that didn't make us feel comfortable, it was clear as soon as we met with Alan that we wanted him as our DJ. You will not be disappointed hiring him for your wedding.

The wedding was very fun. You did a great job on keeping everybody on the dance floor. It was a party from beginning to end. I'll keep your card and phone number on file, and I'll be sure to pass it on. If you need anything let me know.

OH MY GOSH!!!! Alan you were the BEST!!! Professional but fun, you were awesome with the music selection and read the guest perfect. You were set up before the guest arrived, dressed appropriately, made the announcements when requested, and went over and above to help coordinate. I am still getting fabulous reviews on the party. I would highly recommend you to anyone! I have no doubt that they would NOT be disappointed in choosing you to DJ at their wedding!

Client testimonial from Marlene and Joseph Lamnin

It has taken us a week or to send out notes to the vendors and Sara & Jon’s wedding. We wanted to thank you for the superb job you did as the Disc Jockey at Sara & Jon’s wedding. You covered their play list and even squeezed in our last minute request. Please feel free to use us as references (even though I’m sure you don’t need any). Thanks for helping to make the wedding a beautiful & memorable occasion.


Cordially,


Marlene and Joseph Lamnin

Client testimonial from Risa Coler
12/19/2008

It really was a pleasure working with you. I'm always weary about working with Disc Jockeys that haven't been to our site before. Normally, I have to keep on checking in with them to make sure we're all on the same page, but you were absolutely fantastic to work with. I didn't have to check in with you at all, so good, I forgot to say goodbye to you - please forgive me.
I hope to work with you again in the future. Please do send me some cards to pass out to my colleagues for future reference.


Best,

Additional Advice
There will never be any changes or unexpected substitutions with my service. When you hire me, you get me your event. When you hire one of my team members, you get that person at your event. I will give you straightforward answers to your questions honestly and with integrity. I offer professional, reliable, quality entertainment. I want you to be 100% satisfied, but even more than that, I want you to be delighted, and I expect that you will be. Since over 90% of my business comes from recommendations and referrals, each event is very special and important to me. I will decline an event if I feel I cannot provide the proper entertainment. Weddings are one of the most demanding events a disc jockey can work. The broad variety of ages and musical tastes, not to mention the time and money put into the reception, adds to the expectations placed on a wedding DJ. If the Disc Jockey has been in business for a while and adheres to normal business practices, the odds are in your favor that they will do a fine job simply to protect their good reputation. Check to see if the Disc Jockey carries liability insurance: Many reception sites require this. Also ask your photographer, or caterer, they should be able to give you a good referral of a Disc Jockey. Ask for a list of his past 3 clients. This will give you an idea of the quality of his work. Once you feel you found an established Disc Jockey, with the music selection you like, make your final selection based on their personality. Some disc jockeys like to steal the show. These DJs are always on the microphone and like to be very visible. The other end of the spectrum is the DJ with a lack of any personality who does nothing except play the music. While other Disc Jockeys are a even mixture of the two. Usually you can get a feel for style simply by talking to the disc jockey over the phone, but nothing beats a face-to-face meeting.
